ashen warren
#

why is curse down

#

update?

hollow shell
#

technically yes, Calamitas, but it was a long-ass time ago

young fog
#

well, it’s suggested now

hollow shell
#

That's not really what I meant but yes that also seems useful

I was thinking more along the lines of putting something on your screen to show that it's active
like how Rev has the Rage/Adren bars, and Iron Heart has the custom heart texture

young fog
#

Oh uhh

#

I could add that

elder yew
#

Could put an X indicator over wings

hollow shell
#

Yeah if you could add that as an "or" or just as something additional, that'd be nice

#

Ye that's good

#

Thanks

young fog
#

Thanks

hollow shell
#

@ashen warren Pickaxe power =/= speed

#

Wulfrum Pickaxe cannot break a lot of things
such as Meteorite, or Dungeon Brick, or Hellstone
but the Deathbringer Pickaxe can

ashen warren
#

Their balancing factor is that you can't mine anything worthwhile with them.

#

True

hollow shell
#

The reason why its so fast is to speed up the early game

#

which is normally slow as molasses

ashen warren
#

But it is still broken in a way. I mean I am not complaining (it is an amazing tool) but still a little too fast for starter. Maybe make them harder to get?

#

Diamonds are probably the best thing you can mine with it funnily enough.
Crystalline and whatnot.

#

True but I mean isn't that a part of Terraria? Slow at the beginning?

#

This isn't Terraria, this is Calamity.

#

True 😁

#

Mods are supposed to be different, and change things.

#

Wulfrum is far from imbalanced.

#

👍

pale bluff
#

Wulfrum can't mine Hellstone

ashen warren
#

crimstone is a thing?

#

oof

sleek wigeon
#

It doesnt have "slow" pickaxe "power"

#

It has very fast mining speed, intentionally

#

So you can speed past alot of boring mining

ashen warren
#

There needs to be a Doom Reference
Does there?

Being serious though, that weapon would have almost no use in hell.

#

Making the weapon earlier so you can use it for WoF or later for Providence would be a good idea.

pale bluff
#

thas a good idea tbh, making it useful against very strong bosses

ashen warren
#

Or even earlier for hellstone gathering.

sleek wadi
#

Yeah it should be placed at either pre-WoF or post-ML.

#

This will give you a chance to either use it against WoF and Brimmy or Providence and Signut

frank stratus
#

well

#

ranger is already viable for wof and provi

low remnant
#

My suggestion is to simply allow for a way to change the Rage/Adrenaline visuals by clicking on them or something. Making them toggle-able will make more people happy. (Mind you, I quite like the newer ones)

ashen warren
#

Tbh I just want them to change internal color as you upgrade them.

#

The frames as-is are nice imo.

pale bluff
#

yuh

formal prism
#

Question about music, has the youtuber Turquoise had any of their music added to the mod?

cyan lagoon
#

No

#

There will be a seperate mod involving his music though

formal prism
#

oh, great. I recently found an amazing theme involving the mechanical bosses.

cyan lagoon
#

I can send you an invite if you want

formal prism
#

oh,, to turquoise's music mod?

cyan lagoon
#

Ye

formal prism
#

sure, thanks

arctic pelican
#

Okay, so. I don't really talk here but can we please stop justifying item suggestions by saying it's a reference to something else?
Just saying it references a cool thing does not mean it adds to the mod quality. In fact, adding a bunch of items just because you want Easter eggs usually lowers quality.
Give an actual reason please folks, even just "I'd like more weapons like this at this tier of progression" or "this weapon idea is cool" is better than "it's from this one thing I like"
(Disclaimer: piono is not a calamity dev, moderator or any kind of person with official standing. Please take his opinions with a grain of salt and close air support on hand in case he's wrong)

ruby cobalt
#

this is a good opinion

sinful violet
#

but

arctic pelican
#

(Also, not saying easter egg items are bad, I like most of the ones in the mod already, but most of them serve another purpose too so it doesn't feel absurdly reference-y)

sinful violet
#

but my undertale item.,.,.,

ruby cobalt
#

mrrp

pale bluff
#

the Gaster Blaster Item in Thorium is p powerful

ruby cobalt
#

ataraxia and face melter

ashen warren
#

@arctic pelican
You, I like you.

frail mantle
#

someone should pin that tbh

ruby cobalt
#

it should be common sense

#

but alas

pale bluff
#

eh, I'll prolly hold off on references and stick to more original ideas

#

Astrobuoy and Confusing Magenta Gem are staying in the Suggestions Channel

arctic pelican
#

References are okay in moderation, and if they aren't the main point of the suggestion, but yeah original stuff is usually the best stuff anyways

pale bluff
#

Astrobuoy's reference is just from the name, everything else about it is original

#

and Confusing Magenta Gem has got liked a lot

#

so I made 2 sprites for it,which are the weapon itself and the Projectile

arctic pelican
#

It was a good idea, like I said, being a reference doesn't make it bad (if it did terraria itself would be garbage)
Just saying that there should be more than that, which a lot of folks seem to have forgotten

ruby cobalt
#

here, let me sum it up - dont suggest for the sake of suggesting, this burning dumpster isnt going anywhere

pale bluff
#

I kinda liked the Confusing Magenta Gem Suggestion I made

#

So I ended up making the Sprite for the weapon itself

#

(Which is my pfp rn)

arctic pelican
#

Drh is right though, point has been made, no more really needs to be said at the moment

pale bluff
#

I mostly suggested the Confusing Magenta Gem since there's no real reference to Sonic the Hedgehog in Calamity and that the first Sonic Reference should be a very powerful weapon

rich wagon
#

like the new borders for the minimap kind of thing in 1.3.6?

low remnant
#

potentially, but something that allows for the old visuals to be seen again

ashen warren
#

I'm sensing a really stupid trend, can we not rematch every boss?

#

That's your own damn fault, the point of the lore is to remember each bosses place in the story.

#

I don't understand why folks want boss rematches, do you actually like post providence ravager or something?

pliant bone
#

Hive mind and Perfs already drops Cursed flames and ichor after WoF.
What more do you want from them?

#

I have no idea how will someone even make Hive Mind/Perfs harder than Clonemitas without changing the original style of the fight.

#

And no stuff like instagib because that is bad game design

ashen warren
#

They instagib you and are invulnerable.

rich inlet
#

I mean, why not

pliant bone
#

Might as well add a 5th coinslot

ashen warren
#

No, please.

#

Cosmilite coins are a ☑ anyway

rich inlet
#

Oh

#

I see

#

thonk so did that pass or not

worthy fiber
#

Nope

rich inlet
#

HDhurdur sadness

ashen warren
#

It's a very reposted suggestion, it's obvious the devs don't want it.

worthy fiber
#

Coding limitation shenanigans

rich inlet
#

I guess I’m gonna delet it?

worthy fiber
#

P much

rich inlet
#

Aight, gotta think bout better stuff next timeLUL

ashen warren
#

I don't know why you didn't in the first place but whatever.

delicate vector
#

Let's make a thing that can be made with a lot of money and then be sold

rich inlet
#

Nooo

#

We need more

#

Like 20 worms and a big boii

pliant bone
ashen warren
#

Npc limit reached.

rich inlet
#

Not really iirc

pliant bone
#

So that's how Old DoG got the title of Devourer of Frames

rich inlet
#

I think its like 8 parts for a small worm?

ashen warren
#

You hit npc limit with 2 destroyers, seceond one only spawns some of the segments.

#

Doh

#

Homer simpson in terraria ladies and gentleman.

lost agate
#

Except theres nothing called devourer of thots

#

Only cosmic guardians

ashen warren
#

You mean Another Worm Boss? LUL

ashen warren
past mesa
#

wierd, they didnt work for me

#

i guess thats the new patch, i havent tried it yet

ashen warren
#

yeah, it's in the latest patch

past mesa
#

i did my build yesterday

#

ok ty

#

should i delete my post

cold terrace
#

@novel timber hivemind already got nerfed

novel timber
#

wait really

#

how

cold terrace
#

less clots

#

yesterday's patch

novel timber
#

is this the update that just came out

#

oh ok

#

thx

cold terrace
#

id delete the post in suggestions if i were you

novel timber
#

done

sharp turtle
#

So, the suggestion for having crabulon drop normal mushrooms made me think it'd be cool if there was a crafting recipe for normal mushrooms

#

Like, glowing mushroom+purification powder

sonic quest
#

sounds simple enough

#

why not suggest it?

lost agate
#

Because they arent exactly corrupted?

fossil torrent
#

but they're glowing

#

and you cure them from the glowness I guess

ashen warren
#

You can clemontate them, but they become jungle

sonic quest
#

Maybe using green solution would make more sense

ashen warren
#

Tho who needs that many normal mushrooms

ashen warren
#

Making a cloak to raise adrenaline post DoG is kinda pointless since by DoG, you already have max adrenaline upgrades for that 20 second instead of 45 seconds at the start. And since it's post DoG, it would only have viable progression use for Bumblebirb, Yharon, and SCal, but since those bosses either move so fast, fire a ton of projectiles, or both, this item would be pretty pointless post WoF imo since in Hardmode and Post ML, you have adrenaline upgrades and bosses are more complex when compared to Pre-HM

faint rivet
#

Birb was moved post-guardians

young fog
#

also it wont work bc you can only gain adren in boss fights

ashen warren
#

yeah

#

at least the rage clock would be a new way to build rage since you can't use the spike-nurse thing anymore

#

but heart of darkness/draedon's heart also build rage

#

so the cloaks don't have much use outside of Pre-HM since you have no reliable way to effectively get adrenaline/rage in Pre-HM unlike Hardmode and Post-ML whether that be higher hp for rage or Rod of Discord and wings for more dodging abilities

lost agate
#

Getting adren or rage faster would be disastruous on death mode

elder sparrow
#

what even is the point of that

#

by staying still in rev+ prepare to get bombarded you might as well facetank

#

and by facetanking you gain rage

lost agate
#

^

elder sparrow
#

if you gain such stats so slowly theres literally no point in it

lost agate
#

Its like draedon heart but worse

#

Wait it says u wont take dmg

#

Oh god the luigi %

elder sparrow
#

it allows you to get rage without taking damage.

#

setting itself apart from normal rage

lost agate
#

That sounds like cheese and a half

#

No wait i misunderstood

#

Yeah draedon heart but worse

elder sparrow
#

well in my eyes its a useless feature

lost agate
#

Yeah aint convincing me either

mental path
#

cant wait to abuse that invincibility in multiplayer

#

i like the idea of the rage rod but it shouldn't be in combat imo

#

revengeance and death are there for a hard challenge

inner rover
#

im talking about the Crit-Hit thing

#

Not the new dificulties.

placid girder
#

uhh thats on defiled

dusty stirrup
#

That's defiled only yes

inner rover
#

oh, is it???

fossil torrent
#

That is only on defiled.

inner rover
#

Oh hell

dusty stirrup
#

This suggestion saddens me

placid girder
#

yeah lol

elder mist
#

That means I can delete it.

bitter topaz
#

is this god?

dusty stirrup
#

Do your researches

mental path
#

oh the enemy crit-hit is what youre talking about

inner rover
#

I forgot I had it on!

#

oops

#

man, I should have realized

#

yeah, call me stupid

#

BTW Hollowed Shark, I already deleted it.

dusty stirrup
#

Just don't forget to do your researches next time

inner rover
#

Yup.

#

agreed

#

There should be a role for "Dummies". Like me XD

dense girder
#

There is

#

It's called "Warned".

sonic quest
#

oop

inner rover
#

Yeah, I got Warned back in January for suggesting meme stuff. Apparently it lasts for a month. I have had it for more than a month now.

dense girder
#

Actually no

inner rover
#

?

dense girder
#

You were warned last Wednesday as well

inner rover
#

really??

dense girder
inner rover
#

hang on, let'sdo this in DM

dense girder
#

I have idiot log access, so I can see all the warns and bans and etc that goes on

#

You were also warned in January but that expired

#

until wednesday that is

inner rover
#

Oh yeah, I remember, but that was only because someone said something like "press F to pay respects"

#

That is why.

dense girder
#

I am nothing but a mere ASS (acronym), I cannot aide you in your warn

inner rover
#

im not asking for my warn to go

dense girder
#

If you want to appeal talk to a mod, but it was Drh who warned you, and he's gone now, so, uh, whoops

inner rover
#

im just explaining myself. is all

dense girder
#

icy, icy

#

I mean somebody said "can we get an F in chat?" and you posted "f" 6 times in separate messages so I don't blame drh

fossil torrent
#

Why the fuck do you have idiot log access

#

you’re not even cd

dense girder
#

I'm one of the owners of Giveaways armsmirk

fossil torrent
#

Oh right cross-mod bullshit

dense girder
#

ok

inner rover
#

well, I will just resume my playthrough now. Laters, taters.

round falcon
#

Suggestion concept: Rage builds if a fishing line breaks

dense girder
#

bu-- why though

inner rover
#

yeah nah

dense girder
#

that doesn't make much sense and it's a very... specific situation to say the least

#

"My fishing line... I feel... FURY" yeah no not exactly

gaunt karma
#

charging adrenaline pre boss is a stupid idea, and we have heart of darkness for charging rage

#

adrenaline is meant to take skill to get and rage is rage

mental path
#

that's irl rage

gaunt karma
#

like honestly charging rage AND adrenaline is just like

#

hey lets start the boss fight off with 1500% damage for three seconds, thats fun right?

ruby cobalt
#

correction for like half early bosses: let's not fight the boss

lost agate
#

^

#

On DM at least

ashen warren
#

Hmm. Should summons be perishable during boss battles?

gaunt karma
#

no?

lost agate
#

Perishable?

gaunt karma
#

they die/ run out of time

ashen warren
#

Die from soaking damage.

#

Not time.

lost agate
#

Ew no

ashen warren
#

Why?

gaunt karma
#

so that the summoner can spam click them back alive then go back to x debuff weapon?

#

its stupid and pointless

#

it adds absolutely nothing

lost agate
#

Imagine having to resummon mechworm every second because it does too much dmg

gaunt karma
#

they don't soak up damage anyway, enemies don't target summons

lost agate
#

And its more vanilla code fuckery

gaunt karma
#

its annoying to code and its annoying in game, adds absolutely nothing

lost agate
#

Yeah basically

ashen warren
#

Well, as a compensation for losing said summon, rage could be added.

#

Though the vanilla code is ech

gaunt karma
#

all classes have something bad, melee needs to be close, ranged has ammo, mage has mana and rogue is stupid

frosty kindle
#

or just not include such a bothersome mechanic in the first place

gaunt karma
#

summoner has to babysit 8 year olds with adhd hopped up on lsd and coffee

frosty kindle
#

summon already suffers from its AI not even working 100% the time

ashen warren
#

I'd assume for vanilla and modded alike?

gaunt karma
#

mhm

#

summoner has inconsistent damage, and even then at a lot of stages its much worse than other classes

#

do you know how iffy ice claspers and elemental axe can be? and they both target through walls and can go through them

frosty kindle
#

and target things offscreen thus leading to ignoring bosses

gaunt karma
#

yep

#

thats part of it

#

like half the time i reset the map completely to despawn stuff just so they'll target stuff slightly less

ashen warren
#

Would a range limit on summons work?

gaunt karma
#

they do

#

all summons have range limit, even if its crazy high

ashen warren
#

Smaller range limit then

sonic quest
#

the axe and clasper's should stick to the player more tbh

gaunt karma
#

ice claspers have like, max zoomed out range, elemental axe is stupidly high but

#

i agree

#

axe and claspers staying a bit closer wouldn't be bad

sonic quest
#

so annoying to see them constantly teleport to try and get an enemy thats god knows where

gaunt karma
#

going in a cave to try and farm for say absorber sucks because even if you target an enemy they still have 100s of other targets

ashen warren
#

Reduce range on summons is a yes?

frosty kindle
#

the range is fine, targeting method isnt

#

either always have it prioritize bosses or actually have the targetting function work properly

#

but vanilla code ruins any hope of such happening.

ruby cobalt
#

Reminding you that targetting function does nothing if summons already have a target.

#

And if they kill their current target you have to reapply it.

frosty kindle
#

tbh summon manual targetting should actually change targets but code machine borked

gaunt karma
#

yees

ashen warren
#

Would it be possible to make summons ignore enemies entirely using an ingame item that functions similarly to how the cosmilight changes light and night?

gaunt karma
#

ah yes

#

i'll just leave myself totally defenseless

ashen warren
#

Against what? It is toggleable.

#

Just toggle enemy targeting and summon a minion on the offending enemy. Then plod along, disable enemy targeting, and switch to a debuff weapon

#

It'd be an exchange of survival for extra damage.

#

The only problem I see is that vanillas rarted code would die on the concept.

gaunt karma
#

its not well thought out

#

and does basically nothing for you

ashen warren
#

How so?

gaunt karma
#

whats the point

#

most summons kill enemies fast enough excluding a few jungle things

ashen warren
#

To target bosses rather than some blue slime a screen and a half away. And even if they do kill fast enough, they will have ignored the boss, losing damage potential and further lengthening the fight.

#

the ignorance could be a permanent function, but then the flaw of having boss summons delete you.

#

And reading some older comments, a summoning gripe is that they "target things offscreen thus leading to ignoring bosses"

oof

vestal elbow

skyline wings HyperFailure

spiral olive
#

i mean, there's skyline wings but you don't really even need wings for cryo

ashen warren
#

Just run

vestal elbow
#

isn't MOAB technically pre-cryogen

#

it's just a glorified bundle + jetpack but still

spiral olive
#

i think so yeah

#

plus moab will basically last you all the way until xeroc wings

vestal elbow
pale bluff
#

MOAB is p good

formal prism
#

there is an astral wing item called Hadarian Wings; I think the wings are new, as one of the materials for them haven't popped up in my gametime. @still falcon

vestal elbow
#

post-Deus too

#

and ye
Hadarian is new and Astral-themed

languid ermine
#

it has 60 flight tho darylsweating

ashen warren
#

You've always used a piercing weapon for providence guardians though?

#

For example: Ark of the Elements for guardians and use Galactus Blade otherwise.

#

Most classes have it that a piercing weapon is their go-to.

#

Summoner, Rogue and Mage fyi.

#

And on that "60 flight" comment, community and caribbean rum.

#

Then you've got seraph tracer speed pre-ml.

@SkeletonHunter96#0405 please elaborate

#

Oh they left

Nvm ig

vestal elbow
#

he left deepthonk

ashen warren
#

Hah, Lacerator

#

Also known as "Not viable"

cyan lagoon
#

Thats not polterghast tier though

#

Its for polterghast yes but not directly after polter bug before dogg

ashen warren
#

Polts could not bounce off enemies.
Ghost and whatnot.

#

Oof, I was thinking of how the armor works with the ruinous souls and whatnot

cyan lagoon
#

Cant blame you for that @ashen warren

ashen warren
#

It'd just move through them or something.

cyan lagoon
#

It is rather confusing since they're the only bloodflare items that use the souls

ashen warren
#

Still dunno why lac was nerfed.

#

It went from mid-tier to utter garbage.

#

Was once rlly good against DoG

#

Once anyways

#

I only remember it being good for sentinels phase and cosmic guardians.

#

Cosmic Guardians?

#

Solar flare beat it otherwise.

#

Oh, the devourer of thots

ashen warren
#

Better suggestion, make all the elementals look like their elements.

#

I, too would like a volcano, two sandstorms, fog, and a water balloon protecting me instead of magic women

languid ermine
#

nah only make siren look like actual siren

ashen warren
#

Are you suggesting multiple versions of the same item or?

#

Some toggle in menus for one (1) cosmetic feature

#

They'd still be.. madames but out of fire, sand, cloud and water.

waxen pike
#

I’m not the only one who wants them to look real and this one did at first but now doesn’t and I want to know why

languid ermine
#

just change the pearl to have siren sprite instead of a water clone jutsu of her

waxen pike
#

Old was better we had a sentry siren as well and they looked real

ashen warren
#

Okay, but why

languid ermine
#

cuz brimmy Sandy rare Sandy and Cloudy all have their sprites and in color
only siren is all water

#

it's not actually siren just a water clone of her

ashen warren
#

Since you killed her.

languid ermine
#

you killed brimmy too

waxen pike
#

You defeated the others as well and they aren’t clones

ashen warren
#

That's why I think they should all be clones.

#

Mind you that the actual siren is mortal and protecting the leviathan

#

They ded.

#

The other ones can reform or project themselves, as is when you fight multiple cloud elementals

waxen pike
#

I see it as you defeated them and now they work for you

languid ermine
#

multiple brimmies?

ashen warren
#

Lorewise you kill them, neko.

waxen pike
#

Same thing you kill brimstone

ashen warren
#

Yeah, you put the brimmy outta her misery

waxen pike
#

Even states that inthe lore

ashen warren
#

Though I suspect you cannot kill the more intangible ones that could reform.

#

You're meant to be a brutal murderer like yharim, no better than him since you seek higher and higher power.

#

Do mind that they attack you first

#

uh, sand and cloud only

#

And if you use an arid artifact then just cloud.

#

Siren on a technicality, as she attracts people to their doom

#

We're immune afaik.

#

That's why we slap the lure, with a gun.

#

Brimmy attacks whoever worships her, so ech.

waxen pike
#

All you who don’t play summoner don’t understand how annoying it is to just have a clone in the middle of the elementals

ashen warren
#

I have played summoner, heart is ass.

#

Just get another statis' blessing.

#

Heart is useful for farming, maybe

waxen pike
#

Idk I use it and blessing its pretty good

spare pollen
#

heart is just fun to have tbh, it doesn't seem terribly effective but I like having a harem of elementals

ashen warren
#

#

I like having a harem

#

HotE is 2nd best ball of stats, only loses to community. If you're down a slot use HotE.

Carried that all the way to scal but again that’s not my point looks like only sleepy calamitas gets my point

sleek wadi
#

Visibility on for Prov and DoG, visibility off for everything else.

languid ermine
#

Siren Waifu on Heart of the elements SHOULD look like siren

ashen warren
#

No waifus

spare pollen
#

Doesn't it?

ashen warren
#

Why, it's her attack, you're just using it?

spare pollen
#

That's confusing

languid ermine
#

it's a water clone

#

not actual siren

ashen warren
#

They are now just elementals.

radiant meadow
#

I think there might be plans to focus more on p2 of hm

#

make p1 shorter and p2 longer

spare pollen
#

On a bit of a tangent, you guys know any particularly effective weapons for Hive Mind?

radiant meadow
#

for the next update, but idk how long that'll be

spare pollen
#

alrighty then

ashen warren
#

Seafoam bomb, that is all.

waxen pike
#

Ok so your saying the siren is a clone for a reason and we fight a buffed one for real siren ?

radiant meadow
#

I think there's just more than one siren

#

the one you fight and the siren lure are different I guess?

ashen warren
#

I'm saying that if we kill them lorewise and take their shit then it makes sense that it's a clone.

radiant meadow
#

and the one you fight can make clones that look like the lure

ashen warren
#

However going by that logic all the elementals should look purely like their element.

waxen pike
#

Still.... brimstone

languid ermine
#

blobs of lava sand water and wind

#

yes that'll work

dense girder
#

the last one is entirely transparent

ashen warren
#

They'd still look like women you fucking perverts.

dense girder
#

whut

#

why the perverts bit

ashen warren
#

Yeah wha?

#

"blobs of lava sand water and wind"

dense girder
#

"How dare you think they wouldn't have a gender, you fucking pervert!!" 😕

ashen warren
#

Perverts tho?

waxen pike
#

This escalated

ashen warren
#

Why else would they complain about losing featureless breasts hmm?

#

Who would?

radiant meadow
#

do I want to know where this conversation is headed?

waxen pike
#

Complained about it being a clone wtf

radiant meadow
ashen warren
#

Wuh oh, time to look busy boys

dense girder
#

How to get ideas for a calamity suggestion:

languid ermine
#

point being that you get all the waifus as they are exept for Siren
as a Collector I want the Actual Siren and not a Water clone of her
and I think there should be a way

dense girder
#

Step 1 - Open the wiki and click "random page"
Step 2 - Keep going until you find a useless enemy/item
Step 3 - Profit

languid ermine
#

even if it was a Dye or something

ashen warren
#

And again. She. Is. Dead.
You killed her.

pale bluff
#

I still liked making the idea of a Phantom Ruby Weapon that could be crafted into a more powerful Gauntlet

sleek wadi
#

Death doesn't matter you can bring literally everything back.

dense girder
#

GlowDonk

#

Don't forget the why part of it

#

Don't make a suggestion for the sake of a reference/weapon

waxen pike
#

Smh agree to disagree it’s not like you actually use the pearl in the first place

radiant meadow
#

the siren is not an elemental

dense girder
#

Make a suggestion because you see a clear weapon gap or broken bridge

radiant meadow
#

the elemental is the lure

sleek wadi
#

BoC should be completely dead after the first go and there should only be Perforators, but you can still bring it back.

ashen warren
#

BoC reforms in the crimson

languid ermine
#

then why is Sandy and rare different from the Sand elemental?

ashen warren
#

That's because terraria is a terrible game to have a meaningful lore.

languid ermine
#

sisnce you get the elemental you should get the Sand elemental instead

ashen warren
#

Sandbox

languid ermine
#

by that logic

radiant meadow
#

they used to like like sand elemental

#

but they got resprited

ashen warren
#

The lore is vague tho, so don't base everything around it

waxen pike
#

They look better this way but the healing one is useless

radiant meadow
#

it is, indeed sad

pale bluff
#

the Phantom Ruby weapon's reason is that there's no sort of Sonic Reference in Calamity... nor any sort of Weapon with a Unique Debuff that isn't a useless weapon after you get it

dense girder
#

Drowning - Debuff
Your lungs are filled with water
While afflicted with Drowning, you lose a bit of health at a rate dependent on your movement speed. Inflicted by ocean enemies, Siren/Leviathan, etc.
why = A debuff similar to Electrified but not as ridiculously dangerous as Electrified would be useful for some bosses, as well as suggesting/creating weapons where no other debuffs would apply.

ashen warren
#

What would inflict this?

pale bluff
#

🤔

dense girder
#

Several ocean enemies could

ashen warren
#

Isn't that just crush depth?

dense girder
#

Mantis Shrimp, Crab, Shark, etc.

#

no crush depth is dependent on defense

radiant meadow
#

crush depth is based on your defense

dense girder
#

also that's for the abyss

ashen warren
#

Depth blade does drop from sharks

waxen pike
#

Isn’t that just a vanilla feature if running out of air

radiant meadow
#

I don't think mantis shrimp needs a debuff daryl

ashen warren
#

Mantis shrimp wack

#

I know mechanically but it's still just crush depth.

dense girder
#

I -- no????

#

It's not "just" crush depth, they're only similar in the lose health department

waxen pike
#

Why give something that one shots you a debuff

dense girder
#

Crush Depth is based on defense, Drowning is based on movement speed

#

If anything Drowning is just a much weaker version of Electrified

ashen warren
#

Not talking mechanically.

#

I just said that

dense girder
#

What do you mean "it's still just crush depth" then

pale bluff
#

Marked for Death can one shot you if you have shite DR

ashen warren
#

Thematically it's just wet but better, like crush depth is wet but better.

#

Why not make drowning replace normal drowning and also increase damage the further deep you are.

#

Three whole debuffs for "you've got water on you"

dense girder
#

Wet doesn't even count as a debuff

#

It is one but it's just a cosmetic effect

waxen pike
#

That doesn’t make much sense you will die in less then 2 seconds in abyss anyway

ashen warren
#

Doesn't the levi + siren enrage based on wetness?

dense girder
#

wh-- no

ashen warren
#

If you're wet the cute fishron is buffed.

dense girder
#

either boss enrages when the other dies first

pale bluff
#

I wished Duke was basically the SON of Levi

ashen warren
#

And while wet you take less damage from levi, or at least you used to.

#

Still do

#

And siren doesn't beat you up as much

waxen pike
#

I think that’s still a thing since leviathan dashes at you in hyper speed

dense girder
#

When you have the Wet debuff, the meteors that The Leviathan spews deal slightly less damage and the Siren's projectiles have a lower velocity.

#

ye

#

Anyways, Wet is then a passive debuff, affecting specific situations

#

This is an actual debuff

#

You know, one that deals damage/hinders the player, like a real debuff would

ashen warren
#

That's wet but better.

#

Like crush depth.

dense girder
#

what is up with you today jeez
You can stop with the whole "X is wet but better" now you know

ashen warren
#

A real debuff just sounds like life loss with some new gimmick tbh

pale bluff
#

Suffocation exists and that's too rare to get LUL

waxen pike
#

I think brimstone and god slayer have that covered

dense girder
#

This isn't even meant to be an enemy-inflicted debuff what the fuck am I doing

ashen warren
#

hah

dense girder
#

It's meant to be a player inflicted debuff for enemies for weapons that are based around water

#

I'm gonna fix this fucker

#

(because literally the only option for those weapons is cRuSh DePth)

waxen pike
#

Ok that makes more sense but question how do you drown a fish

ashen warren
#

I hope they mention an immunity for inorganic and aquatic bosses

dense girder
#

Drowning - Debuff
Your lungs are filled with water
While afflicted with Drowning, enemies lose health quickly and turn blue. Does not affect aquatic enemies/bosses.
why = This debuff would be useful for giving weapons based around water but not the Abyss their own, proper debuff, instead of either Wet or Crush Depth.

ashen warren
#

Wouldn't the debuff need to be weak af since almost all enemies move all the time?

#

Because if someone drown providence, I will scree

dense girder
#

I don't think movement-based debuffs work on enemies anyways

ashen warren
#

Confused does, but then again

#

confused

#

Imagine if you could confuse scal.

#

That would be something.

#

Something awful

waxen pike
#

You inflict confused by hitting I don’t think movement speed is calculated with enemies

dense girder
#

you call me a they? on jah? it's a he smh

ashen warren
#

I honestly started doing that because I got yelled at for calling a she a he, so yeah

dense girder
#

Then that she is a bit of a bitch ngl

ashen warren
#

"How dare you not assume my gender"

#

It's better than 'it'

dense girder
#

If somebody gets mad at you for mistaking their gender as an honest mistake

#

Don't talk to them lol

#

But yes, debuff, is it good or is it bood

ashen warren
#

crsh drph

dense girder
#

stop mentioning crush depth ffs

ashen warren
#

Honestly tho, it sounds nice for the new biome if it was nerfed a little.

#

Tbh it's On Fire! but water now. Henkhenk

dense girder
#

sequence

waxen pike
#

You can’t use movement speed for a source of debuff on enemies

dense girder
#

why so meanie sad

ashen warren
#

I like being sarcastic.

#

Eh, act how you want.

#

All the time, sometimes y'all can't tell.

dense girder
#

It's not meant to be a revolutionary, game-changing addition

#

It's just a debuff for water weapons

#

So that they don't have to use CRUSH DEPTH REEE

ashen warren
#

I could see this working in the place of silva stun if tweaked.

#

For the new weapons anyway

dense girder
#

Silva Stun is entirely, entirely, entirely different to this

#

because, you know, stun

ashen warren
#

^

dense girder
#

but yes I know what you mean

#

SS weapons

ashen warren
#

SunkSea

#

Sorry, but piss sea

#

I dunno why a debuff needs to exist that is literally one of hundreds of flames debuffs.

dense girder
#

QoL

#

Also makes more sense for SS weapons because

ashen warren
#

How tf does this affect QoL?!

dense girder
#

do I need to explain this honestly smh tbh

ashen warren
#

Flames are flames, seen water ignite someone before?

dense girder
#

he means in function

pale bluff
#

why not have a Weapon that inflicts EVERY Flame Debuff

ashen warren
#

That'd be neat

dense girder
#

sequence, the only available debuffs for water right now are wet, and crush depth

#

of which one does something useful 99.5% of the time

#

it's not about "grr another flame debuff"

ashen warren
#

That's a dev weapon, see also > demon flames and shred.

dense girder
#

it's just to fill the gap and not make fab resort to stupid shit like SILVA STUN

ashen warren
#

Silva stun is used on the clam pearl right?

pale bluff
#

Crush Depth is a good Debuff if you use it on an enemy

dense girder
#

and on several SS weapons iirc

ashen warren
#

Clam weapons.

#

Ones that are meant to be bout high impact.

waxen pike
#

Need fixed, nerf

ashen warren
#

It also gives use to silva stun.

dense girder
#

Silva Stun is meant to be for Silva armor

ashen warren
#

It's worthless on silva armor.

dense girder
#

That's why it's called, get this

#

SILVA Stun

ashen warren
#

Literally not used on anything worthwhile.

#

In that case, rename silva stun to something else.

dense girder
#

Otherwise Fab should rename it to something like "Stunned"

ashen warren
#

See, why not just make a suggestion like that?

#

Smh

dense girder
#

Because SS weapons, being themed around, get this, take notes, listen carefully

#

the ocean

ashen warren
#

the ocean has an abyss, and guess who's down there

dense girder
#

should inflict an appropriate debuff, I get that they're "high impact" and Stunned does make relative sense there

waxen pike
#

Another thing is why did they turn the essence of cinder to essence of sunlight and keep the other 2 -.-

dense girder
#

but it makes more sense for them to inflict an ocean-themed debuff e.g. Drowning

#

it would be the counterpart to the Abyss' Crush Depth, if you will

ashen warren
#

Dunno why being hit by a clam would make me drown above water.

#

Could grab your face

dense girder
#

Are you a zombie

#

/ demon eye / enemy

#

Then you can't tell can you HDfailure

spiral olive
#

tbh the effect title doesn't really matter as long as the actual effect does what it should. doesn't really matter that it's silva stun, as long as it stuns

ashen warren
#

^

dense girder
#

As I said

#

Ocean weapons - ocean debuff makes more sense than Big weapons - stun debuff

#

By that sense, apply silva stun to Any heavy weapon

#

Staff of the Earth looks pretty fuckin' dangerous and heavy, give it Silva Stun

ashen warren
#

Good idea, phoenix blade is trash atm.

#

Excuse me what

spiral olive
#

that seems really pointless tbh, a stun is a stun. don't need multiple stun debuffs

ashen warren
#

Why not make it more unique to perhaps separate it from other debuffs?

spiral olive
#

and a "drowning" dot effect could just be crush depth

pale bluff
#

I have 2 unique Debuffs from my Suggestions that make a non boss enemy not attack you, and give you a massive advantage

dense girder
#

sharp inhale

ashen warren
#

told you

dense girder
#

Crush Depth is based around the Abyss. Drowning is based around the Sunken Sea. There's a distinct difference for a reason.

spiral olive
#

but they do the same thing basically

dense girder
#

No they bloody well don't Nin

#

Crush Depth is based around defense, Drowning is a general life loss debuff

#

CD's damage is affected by whatever it hits

ashen warren
#

What would be the correct statement there is that it's underwater flames

#

Crush depth makes you lose life though.

dense girder
#

And like I said, instead of making a select few heavy-hitting weapons deal Silva Stun, making ocean themed weapons inflict Drowning makes more sense

spiral olive
#

crush depth also causes life loss though doesn't it?

dense girder
#

It's almost like 95% of debuffs do, great observation

quiet abyss
#

It does, ye

spiral olive
#

eh, maybe i'm over thinking it but it just seems kinda obsolete

quiet abyss
#

Though crush depth DoT depends on the target's defense

dense girder
#

Except Drowning is a fixed loss-of-life rate, meaning that it won't destroy enemies who are being Armor Crunched/Ichored

#

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

#

Exactly that

#

Can you see waves hands the clear distinction waves again between the two, Sequence and Nincity????

ancient dragon
#

Stop being condescending, will ya?

ashen warren
#

I do feel it could be differentiated a bit more. Even if it is a set debuff

quiet abyss
#

No need to be sound so- ye what Alexis said^

ashen warren
#

I like how you're treating me like an idiot.

#

Bye.

#

That was pleasant

dense girder
#

Goodnight, Sequence 👋

spiral olive
#

idk to me it still just seems like a waste of time to code another dot debuff as well as another stun debuff when both are already right there

#

's all im saying basically

ashen warren
#

But yeah, it is just a debuff, you can rework it, it's not set in stone and will most likely not make it past if it's just another life loss debuff if it doesn't have any special gimmick. cya.

pale bluff
#

Here are 2 Debuffs I made from 2 of my Suggestions in full detail

Delusional (Unique Debuff from the Confusing Magenta Gem): Makes the enemy stationary and look around in confusion as if it's seeing multiples of you. Giving you the advantage to attack the enemy
Phantom Fear (Unique Debuff from the Gauntlet of the Phantom Lord): Makes the enemy attempt to run away as if you are a terrifying entity but gets pulled toward you slowly. Giving you an advantage to catch up to the enemy and strike!

frosty kindle
#

now the question remains as to, is it entirely useful? gamechanging etc.

ashen warren
#

^

dense girder
#
  1. Silva Stun but with extra effects
  2. eh it's ok
frosty kindle
#

like, good ideas, but how exactly would it shine in scenarios other than normal enemies?

pale bluff
#

Maybe as a way to keep a Mini boss from attacking you, maing the fight with one much easier

ashen warren
#

Really, those look cosmetic, but cool

pale bluff
#

they are pretty useful if you have a hard time killing something like a Paladin or a Reaper Shark

#

all Bosses are immune to both Delusional and Phantom Fear, since they aren't affected by the power of the Confusing Magenta Gem nor the Gauntlet of the Phantom Lord

ancient dragon
#

@dense girder Had a quick talk with the mods and we've decided it's about time we properly warned you for general toxic behavior such as the above.

dense girder
#

Fair enough lol

#

Remember to log it ☝

#

Rusty Mace - Post-Plantera Flail
Dropped by Rusty Armored Bones. On use, throws a mace in a fast, long, high arc, returning when it hits the ground and hitting enemies along the way. Pierces infinitely. When it hits an enemy, inflicts Silva Stun for 0.25s. When it hits a player, inflicts Silva Stun for 0.25s and Bleeding for 1s.
why = Rusty Armored Bones and Dungeon enemies in general could use an extra weapon, seeing as the Keybrand is practically always obsolete when obtained and other Dungeon weapons are fodder for future upgrades.

#

no boss suggestions

frosty kindle
#

boss suggestions aren't necessarily allowed, though. even if they get sent to dev server they'll most likely be ignored

dense girder
#

they wouldn't get sent because they're outright disallowed and would be deleted

pale bluff
#

alrighty

radiant meadow
#

I thought all suggestions are basically ignored LUL

ashen warren
#

"Suggestions to add entire bosses will never be accepted."
This only applies to 🏁

#

That, that is also true.

pale bluff
#

are Minibosses accepted?

dense girder
#

They're allowed

#

But the chances of them getting sent, much less accepted, are next to nil compared to weapons or gameplay changes

ashen warren
#

So, this is the right channel tou discuss about suggestions BEFORE posting any suggestions if I understand clearly?

dense girder
#

Yes

pale bluff
#

might plan to make the Phantom Lord just a rare enemy in the Space Biome who drops the Empty Gauntlet used to craft the Gauntlet of the Phantom Lord

dense girder
#

Is this necessary, as an addition to the mod

pale bluff
#

least likely, since the Empty Gauntlet was originally an uncommon Yharon Drop in Normal mode or higher in my Suggestion

dense girder
#

Was this actually in the mod or am I dummy

pale bluff
#

it's not in the mod

#

was a part of my Suggestions

ashen warren
#

Are pillars hardcoded? I wouldn't be surprised.

craggy elk
#

probably

alpine garnet
#

Could create some sort of copy without pillars maybe (doomsayer)

ashen warren
#

Hmm probably. not bad idea.

radiant meadow
#

an exact replica of the boss?

#

but w/o pillars

ashen warren
#

Maybe an XL world generating? That could be more fun

#

Uh, they removed that for a reason.

#

oof then forget this suggetion discution

#

Having a raised roof was super buggy apparently, I never saw any bugs though funnily enough.

radiant meadow
#

most of the bugs were in large worlds

ashen warren
#

I only used large worlds slobbyjoy

#

I do too lol

pale bluff
#

I was planning on making the Phantom Lord a Suggestion but the more I thought about it, the more dumb it sounded

ashen warren
#

I wonder if they'll add future bosses to the mod, kinda like the related bosses (eye/brain of cuthulu) WIth new objects. mostly positive I feel

devout seal
#

There won't be future versions of bosses

#

but there will be bosses to be added in the future

ashen warren
#

that's what I ment oups xp I ain't englophone sry

#

Future bosses confirmed to never happen?

#

DoU and whatnot?

devout seal
#

they were already removed for not making enough sense.

ashen warren
#

From what I know they were removed because it caused unrest in the dev team since they were rushed.

pale bluff
#

THE LORDE was a joke boss that people hated because it didn't give a cool drop (I think)

ashen warren
#

Uh, that's not a future boss, and people hate the lorde because it's about as funny as a turkey sandwich.

pale bluff
#

oh

ashen warren
#

XD a turkey sandwich! Just think if dev team WILL make a turkey sndwich bossifhgt xP What will it drop? Maynase and tomatoes and lettuces and turkey and bread? I guess you're right for the lorde, although I do enjoy a hard challenge

spare pollen
#

I thought the sprite looked a bit funny in a way.

ashen warren
#

it is funny looking

spare pollen
#

Also unrelated but holy crap did that seafoam bomb help out, thanks man

ashen warren
#

If fab added a turkey sandwich boss I would learn how to code a mod that removes it.

dense girder
#

what in the manner of god have I just read

quick dove
ashen warren
#

Wait
"I need to then beat Steve"
Huh?

spare pollen
#

Moon Lord.

#

I think I've heard someone jokingly say he's got a benign name like Steve or something.

ashen warren
#

That's an inside joke unless re-logic said it and I'm an idiot.

pale bluff
#

Re Logic said that, most likely as a joke

ashen warren
#

Typing moon lord isn't hard and is far clearer though.

#

And the lorde's real name is?

pale bluff
#

Lunarius would be a better name imo

#

The Lorde's real name is too long for me to type, so I suggest looking him up on the Wiki

ashen warren
#

Hush about the lorde please, it's seriously not funny.

#

It's based off Yharim ok?

#

I've burst out of laughing with the turkey sandwich discussion

pale bluff
#

so it's basically Yharim's idiotic clone?

ashen warren
#

Ouhhh a failed experiment

pale bluff
#

nah, just a terribly coded idiotic clone

#

who is worthless to fight since he gives nothing but disappointment

ashen warren
#

well, monii

tame moss
#

Hey, so just a take on the whole siren lure thing.

All the others are primarily elementals, and as such can take or "leave" their form from an artifact.
The siren was the only one with a primarily physical body, so when the player literally kills her to collect the pearl that body is dead.
I see it as her "soul" passing on to becoming a form of elemental, and summons a body made from water like brimmy being made basically from brimstone slag and fire.

#

because I've seen so many suggestions on the lure I just wanna put that out there

ashen warren
#

Maybe the syren gets back into a pearl? I mean, when the angler dies, he technically doesn't die. he just leaves the place

tawny heron
#

Is it possible to make rogue armor buff rogue and throwing at the same time ?

radiant meadow
#

rogue and throwing will stay separate

#

that is the intention and I doubt it is going to change

tawny heron
#

That feels weird, but ok I guess

ashen warren
fresh harbor
#

Doesn't every boss apply a zen potion effect when spawning?

radiant meadow
#

yes

ashen warren
#

Yup, suggestion completely pointless.

#

@tidal musk That already happens.

tidal musk
#

Probably just the usual broken multiplayer stuff

ashen warren
#

@random spoke You might wanna phrase that as not a demand.

fresh harbor
#

That or enemies that were already alive before the boss spawned in

random spoke
#

It looks lieka demand?

#

Like*

radiant meadow
#

hasn't that already been suggested?

ashen warren
#

"You know how you can place bars in vanilla terraria, do the same for the calamity bars"
You're just telling them to do it with no reason.

tidal musk
#

Now i have adrenaline even though we killed it and its daytime now, nice

radiant meadow
#

about placeable bars

ashen warren
#

Yea that's a ☑

#

Wulfrum looks like shit though?

pale bluff
#

the Armor does, but what if the Bricks look nicer than the Shards?

ashen warren
#

It's 2 colors and lacks any unique features.

#

The sprites in shape and stuff are nice but the colors are garbo.

radiant meadow
#

keep in mind that wulfrum enemies no longer spawn in hm

#

so the furniture is exclusive to pre hardmode HDfailure

ashen warren
#

Ah yes, crappy two-tone furniture that's pre-hm exclusive.
Perfect.

#

Just get the calamity texture pack and use wood+stone bricks.

#

Looks way nicer.

pale bluff
#

What if people like the look of Wulfrum?

ashen warren
#

2 people have said wulfrum looks good, one said that they wanted to dye it.

#

The rest are things like "does anyone else think that the wulfrum drones look like lawn mowers?"

tawny heron
#

Only thing that still annoys me is the hallowed/underworld requirements for the providence fight. I mean, I read the lore and it does imply that her very objective is to "purify everything into partial ash". I don't see why it needs to punish biome swaping so hard, especially when biomes tend to be weird when in flight for example, and providence already punishes that. the air is burning

ashen warren
#

Just use gallant + mining potion.
Purge the world of ash blocks.

#

Then slap some pearlstone down and actuate it.

#

Platforms are good for negating icarus' folly.

tawny heron
#

1- Does it still work ?
2- But you still need to be close to the ground at all times else the biome changes

Can we just have a pin that they dont have plans making vanilla throwing weapons "rogue" or anything similar to Rogue being compatible with Throwing at all?

pale bluff
#

dang, my Confusing Magenta Gem suggestion has only 25 Stars daryl

devout seal
#

@random tide Providence was made to drop the exclusive thing to the biome she's in, no matter what
If she's in hallow, but was summoned in an area counting as underworld, she will drop the underworld item.
If she is spawned in a non-underworld hallow, she will drop the wings.
that is how it's been changed.

pliant bone
#

Besides, you only need the wings like after DoG

tired haven
#

If you need wings that are not tracers, tarragon wings have better stats

does there really need to be another desert miniboss

fossil torrent
#

yes HyperFailure

cyan lagoon
#

Technically there is zero

#

Cnidrion doesnt count anymore iirc

signal prairie
#

The miniboss I was thinking wouldnt be a desert miniboss

fossil torrent
#

No sand elemental counts

#

And sand shork

cold terrace
#

sand elemental and gss

cyan lagoon
#

True

#

But prehm wise

fossil torrent
#

I have an idea actually

ashen warren
#

85% chance for pharaoh gear, 14% for sandstorm, 1% for carpet.
Just to fuck with players.

signal prairie
#

Well I wanted to get everyone's opinion before I suggest a miniboss

fossil torrent
#

Pharaoh’s Tomb
Found in the Pyramid instead of the chest
Awakens the Pharaoh Spirit or something which drops Pyramid drops together with some other new stuff

cold terrace
#

and you would want to make the pyramid structure garunteed

fossil torrent
#

Yeah exactly

cold terrace
#

in the main desert

fossil torrent
#

was gonna say that

cold terrace
#

ok

fossil torrent
#

OOOOR

#

Make it guaranteed in the other minor desert, to give it a purpose

signal prairie
#

That's not a good idea, it would be too rng based

fossil torrent
#

Other than just being there for sand n cactus

#

Why would it be rng?

ashen warren
#

"make the pyramid structure garunteed"

Rng based

fossil torrent
#

Isn’t normal pyramids even MORE rng than a guaranteed miniboss drop though?

round falcon
#

yes

signal prairie
#

So if the pharoh spirit would be in the chest, then they would have to fight for an item

fossil torrent
#

What’s your argument here

signal prairie
#

Most player explore they're world early

fossil torrent
#

You can refight the pharaoh spirit, you should have to need something to be able to fight it

#

A ”tribute” of some sort

ashen warren
#

Are you talking about this?
"85% chance for pharaoh gear, 14% for sandstorm, 1% for carpet.
Just to fuck with players."

round falcon
#

There's already enough with the desert as is imo

placid moth
#

why bother with pyramids if you can craft sandstorm in bottles and carpets

fossil torrent
#

I just think the pyramid is dumb

signal prairie
#

Early players don't have much, so making a "tribute" wouldnt work or help, plus having the drops like that would make this mini boss kinda useless

ashen warren
#

You're implying that players are forced to battle it.

placid moth
#

whose suggestion is it even

ashen warren
#

And that they can't wait until after DS.

fossil torrent
#

We're just theorizing together something, i was the one who initiated it

signal prairie
#

I was the one who wanted a miniboss

placid moth
#

Are you suggesting a Desert Mimic or something

ashen warren
#

Simon, scroll up.

placid moth
#

Hmm, water bolt as well ? Interesting.

round falcon
#

Here's an idea.

#

Miniboss summoned anywhere.

#

Depending on the biome it's killed in, it drops ONE specific item.

fossil torrent
#

o

round falcon
#

Depending on the PROGRESSION, that one item changes.

fossil torrent
#

what kind of boss should this be, though?

round falcon
#

miniboss*

fossil torrent
#

"Lone Adventurer" or something? something similar to a player?

#

maybe?

round falcon
#

Cursed Traveller, perhaps?

ashen warren
#

In roguelikes there is a common theme with a scavenger enemy.

signal prairie
#

My idea was to have a player sized miniboss that would appear randomly with a low chance after the player would've explored a certain percentage of the world, and the minibosses stats and drops would scale to your level, plus have a random AI, and would drop useful things that would help with progression,

ashen warren
#

ETG has this annoying rat that takes your guns when you leave a room et cetera.

#

have a random AI
Bad.

signal prairie
#

Not random

#

Like one of three AI kinda thing

#

Depending on the biome

ashen warren
#

"An AI that changes depending on biome" isn't hard to type.

placid moth
#

I am starting to think you are suggesting a miniboss lorde

signal prairie
#

No

#

Not lorde

delicate vector
#

A miniboss that runs away and creates obstacles or gives debuff to hinder the player?

signal prairie
#

Like in a desert or forest, he would hover above you on a magic carpet and fire water bolt at you at your earliest progression

ashen warren
#

Why not make the mini-boss you?

#

"Odd looking mirror" to summon

#

Random encounters are dumdum.

signal prairie
#

Well I wanted to name the miniboss "The Doppleganger"

ruby cobalt
#

The last time I heard of doppelgangers as boss ideas main dev wanted to unscrew someone's head.

placid moth
#

^

signal prairie
#

Like his hp and damage would scale

placid moth
#

Let's do it.

#

Why don't you type your idea down and send it in one complete paragraph

signal prairie
#

Well the miniboss would have a set look

#

Ok

delicate vector
#

The miniboss could have the default terraria look

signal prairie
#

That's a good idea

placid moth
#

Please call it a mob idea instead of miniboss though.

signal prairie
#

Should I sent the suggestion?

placid moth
#

It might be rejected because no boss suggestions

signal prairie
#

It's a miniboss

#

Not a boss

#

He wouldn't have much hp

placid moth
#

Aye, ok then.

ashen warren
#

Miniboss =/= boss.
This has been clarified multiple times by mods.

signal prairie
#

Depending on how many bosses you've killed

ashen warren
#

Yes we get it, he scales.

fossil torrent
#

Miniboss suggestions are fine

#

Why do you think GSS got in?

signal prairie
#

I'mma sent it

ashen warren
#

Their* world

#

They're is they are.

signal prairie
#

I'll let the devs decide on the AI if it makes it that far

fossil torrent
#

That is not a valid reason

#

"why" "Some people came up with the idea and we thought it'd be cool"

dense girder
#

Avoid using personal pronouns or preferences/ideas in your reasoning. Talk about how it could benefit the mod/players using it.

keen nebula
#

Why do I get G.U. vibes from the idea of a Doppelganger miniboss

round walrus
#

"Deals FATAL damage" So what, a one hit kill weapon? Might want to change that one

elder yew
#

Definitely. Maybe damage scaled off of a percentage of a non-boss enemy's max hp?

lost agate
#

@languid ermine nice suggestion!

#

Except no

#

Im like 99% sure the devs will say "yeah i know" and there goes your suggestion

languid ermine
lost agate
#

Suggest an actual weapon, not the fact you need one

languid ermine
#

well if they know it's even better then

#

but i don't think i can make an Exo tier weapon

#

my mind is too limited

#

not creative at all slobbyjoy

lost agate
#

"if they know its even better" uh no it just gets bothersome

#

@cyan glen ....

cyan glen
#

Yes?

lost agate
#

1: no need to
2: why tf?

#

I nohitted scal so its basically easier for me, but that doesnt mean it needs a buff

dense girder
#

bru

lost agate
#

Also thats a big vague suggestion

cyan glen
#

Is just a suggestion and bc get bored the fight

sonic quest
#

some people are masochistic

lost agate
#

Youre bored of the fight?

#

Do it on death

cyan glen
#

Yes

#

i did it with death

lost agate
#

Now do it with defiled

vestal elbow
#

cool now do it with armageddon
and then defiled and arma

cyan glen
#

Yes im doing that

#

And close

#

But the moves are slow

lost agate
#

Man, imagine if every boss was buffed every time someone gets bored of it

cyan glen
#

Of proyects and of S:C

vestal elbow
lost agate
#

A gazillion HP king slime

#

That instakills you and shoot touhou

cyan glen
#

I dont say

vestal elbow
#

king slime but he's constantly teleporting on you akin to death mode

cyan glen
#

She get buffed

lost agate
#

Thats what youre saying

cyan glen
#

only the attacks of her more fast

#

yes ik i say that

lost agate
#

Thats a buff

#

And its uneeded

vestal elbow
#

just wait for her nerf when she loses superboss status HDfailure

cyan glen
#

lel

lost agate
#

3k attempts to nohit her, i dont need more

#

And nobody else does

cyan glen
#

Well but i like the masochist

lost agate
#

Well thats you

cyan glen
#

Yeah i think that

delicate vector
#

The way that suggestion is worded just sounds like you're flexing

lost agate
#

Imma delete the stars because
1: vague
2: subjective
3: its unnecesary

ashen warren
#

gotta go flex

cyan glen
#

Okey, i hope you dont get angry

delicate vector
#

Besides, if Scal is a pattern-based boss, of course it'll become easier the more you get to know her attacks

cyan glen
#

Yes is true, only i want is a new harded boss or something like that

#

Doing so much attempts

lost agate
#

Scal isnt totally pattern based

delicate vector
#

The lorde from apotheosis and friends or the meme bosses from alchemistnpc imho, but if you want to talk further about it we should go to #other-mod-talk

cyan glen
#

nah

#

Dont want to make lose your time

lost agate
#

I mean, you could literally just wait until the mod gets more bosses

#

Wait for xeroc

cyan glen
#

Yes

#

wwait

lost agate
#

Hes literally unkillable (xeroc)

cyan glen
#

Xeroc?

#

ik yharim gonna be a boss

#

but xeroc?

lost agate
#

Yeah superboss after yharim

#

Literal god of gods

delicate vector
#

Are we going to become a legitimate god in terraria lore once calamity's development is done?

cyan glen
#

Oh a little question, The devourer of gods is more strong than a god?

lost agate
#

He devours gods, what do you think?

cyan glen
#

Yeah but he can devour S.C?

ashen warren
#

Perhaps

lost agate
#

Scal isnt a goddess i think

ashen warren
#

She's defeated one tho

delicate vector
#

So the player is a god?

cyan glen
#

Okey thx for the hint

#

no

#

The player is a Killer

delicate vector
#

Oh nvm they do not get devoured (unless they are in hardcore/iron heart)
